What you will be working on?

As the Staff Customer Support Advocate, you will champion exceptional customer experiences while providing valuable insights that shape our support operations.

Around 60-70% of your time will be spent in the queue, supporting our customers via email, live chat, and hopping on troubleshooting calls as needed.

The remaining 30-40% of your time will be spent on leading projects that impact the overall customer experience, like improving customer-facing documentation, training our AI solution, or creating training materials for our team.

You will:

  • Provide expert frontline customer support, handling complex cases and serving as an example of customer service excellence.
  • Investigate and troubleshoot challenging user issues with advanced technical knowledge.
  • Answer questions throughout the entire user journey via live chat, email, and Zoom calls.
  • Lead strategic projects that drive significant organizational impact.
  • Work alongside one of our awesome Customer Support Advocates, Cameron, whose favorite fruit is apricot.
  • Serve as a Product Expert, providing insights and advice to Product Managers and other stakeholders.
  • Create comprehensive educational content (videos, documentation, quizzes) for customers and internally.

What does the schedule look like?

For this position, we are aiming to service customers across North American time zones (PST/CST/MST/EST | GMT -8 to -5). This role will be Monday through Friday.

Requirements

For this position, we are looking to recruit someone in a North American time zone (for example based anywhere in the USA).

If you're hesitant to apply for this position because you feel that you don't meet this list of qualifications fully, don't worry! We still want to hear from you.

  • Significant (7+ years) experience in customer-facing roles, especially in SaaS.
  • Excellence (and a genuine fun!) in frontline customer support with consistent high performance.
  • Advanced troubleshooting abilities for complex technical issues.
  • Experience balancing daily support responsibilities with strategic initiatives.
  • Proven ability to take ownership of strategic initiatives that improve the team and customer experience, such as optimizing workflows, enhancing support processes, or improving documentation.
  • Experience mentoring team members and driving knowledge sharing, for example by running product trainings, shadowing sessions, peer reviews, or onboarding sessions.
  • Very special kudos if you are an Airbnb host or have been working with a short-term rental business.

Benefits

The company itself is also a product, one that we iterate on. We're always improving and creating an environment where we all love to work.

  • A supportive and caring team environment, where you are trusted, not managed.
  • The gross salary for US employees could be anywhere between $81,787.68 to $102,521.90.
  • We also offer an extra incentive into our equity with RSUs through our $HOST token (not tied to location or status).
  • Up to 35 paid days off per year is encouraged (including self-serve public holidays), as well as sick leave and parental leave when needed.
  • For US employees: healthcare (including EPO, PPO and HSA), 401(k).

View company profile

We believe that short-term and vacation rental hosts deserve to earn reservations and generate additional income without sacrificing their time. Our mission is to make it easy for the everyday host to access state-of-the-art technology. We build the software to support a world where hosting short-term is just as easy as traditional, long-term hosting.

What We Do

Hospitable.com automates the day-to-day tasks that should be managed by technology, freeing up hosts to deal with only the issues that need a human touch. We start by automating communication with guests from the first inquiry to the final review while you stay in control. Hosts on Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo can leverage our machine learning systems to answer their guests’ most frequent questions within a minute.

Hosts can earn bookings and help guests in their sleep. Up to 90% of the communication with guests can be handled directly by Hospitable.com.

Hospitable.com can also automate scheduling, notifying and reminding your team of their tasks. It’ll even sync availability calendars across Airbnb. Booking.com, and Vrbo to eliminate double bookings.

We regularly add new features and are always looking to integrate with other channels and STR tools.

The Company

Hospitable.com started as a tool to help a host in Brussels, Pierre-Camille Hamana, rent out 1 spare bedroom. It has grown into a business that has helped thousands of hosts all over the world rent out over 270,000 listings.

It is now registered in Estonia, European Union as smartbnb OÜ.

Hospitable.com helps property owners and managers run more than 295,000 properties in more than 140 countries around the world.
